Quote from gdtrader:
================
Say I wanted to hedge against a decline in the dollar what would be the cheapest way to do it with lots of leverage?? Say for example I wanted to hedge 1mm of todays dollars?? How much would such a transaction cost to hedge and how would I do it??

Thanks
==================

Hedge against what? You need a 2nd asset. What is your time frame? To hedge $1,000,000 USD against the Canadian Dollar (CAD) Buy 13 contracts CAD futures. With IB the margin required is about $57,915.
